Hi! Does anyone have any tricks to help with chafing from your sports bra? When I run >10km I end up with a painful what I think is chafe under my boobs in the centre of my chest. It usually takes about 4 days to heal too.
I just wanted to talk about navigating the loneliness and judgement of being childfree because I am having a really hard time with it.
I'm 35F and I'm married, been with my husband for 12 years. We went to a wedding over the weekend. A long term friend (who i never talk to) had just had a baby and the friendship group (consistenting of parents and people who desperately want to be parents) and fussing over the new baby. Where suddenly I become a joke, where someone comments on how much I "love" babies (pure sarcasm) and every laughs. I also noticed how they all clearly spend alot of time together and have all nurtured their friendships, whereas we/I have not been included.
This happens to me consistently. Where everyone knows my husband and I are CF and because of this we are written off. Not invited to anything and not ever engaged with by these people.
I just felt really sad, alienated and judged. I am capable of love and expressing love and being a good friend. And I HAVE been a good friend to these people.
So now I look at my circle of "friends " and have realised that I am alone. I do not wish to have them in my life anymore as they have hurt me repeatedly. I know I have my husband, who I cherish and love, but I wish for a friend. A real female friend. I don't care if they are a mother!! I just don't want them to judge ME for not being one.
It sucks. I understand why people do it to fit in. I personally won't be but I can see why people do.
